The primary reason to use Lemmey is decentralization and avoidance of Reddit enshitification. Lot of Lemmey blocks shit show lemmey nodes though I am sure they exist.

If you have never used a password on windows or some other authentication mechanism then your Windows is not very secure.

Most of the differences you quote are pretty much the same both systems.

I guess the one exception is the UAC prompt which on Linux is a bit more secure in that it requires a password. Some random person or app cannot just click through it.

There was a time when I looked at LCD screens I saw all the defects.

One of:

• Thank you and if good learn somthing. Asquestions.

• I know, if I know this.

• I do not want to hear it, if it is repetative garbage.

There are so many good providers in the EU. In the US basically those that implement MTA-STS are Google, Microsoft, and Comcast with all of their issues.

I actually ended up at shared hosting provider. I get 30 mailboxes for less than $100 per year. Only incoming MTA-STS though unless I went to my own VPS.

I like Joplin, but it is a note taker not an office suite. So kind of depends on what you want.

You can just use LibreOffice. On Android the app I have is Collabora. The server I use is Nextcloud though it could be anything that LibreOffice and Collabora can work with. I think there is also some sort of web version too of LibreOffice, but I’ve never tried it. Maybe called “LibreOffice Online”?

What is all this for criminals BS. Graphene is one of the best ROMs out there if your willing to use Google hardware. Pretty much just works and without the normal bloat.

That is interesting. You can do that by the command line. Basically run cryptsetup to map the encrypted partition, then run mount. Those commands could also be place in a bash script too. You may need sudo access to run cryptsetup. You will need sudo access for mount unless you configure it as user mountable and not auto mounted in fstab.

You also want script to umount it and unmap it with cryptsetup when done.

Graphically, maybe the Disks gnome tool can do.

You could ask duck.ai too then verify the commands with the man command so you know what they do.

Edit: Also crypttab and fstab are documented in man too as are cryptsetup, mount, and umount.

Edit: Good to not fully trust ai.

Generally what you do is to define the key and mapping of the second drive in /etc/crypttab usually referencing a file with the key. The root patrition which typically contains /etc is typically unlocked with a password you supply.

You can manually map the partions with cryptsetup and then mount them with mount.

VLC maybe.

Ubuntu though I am less liking the snap dependence. I would avoid atomic distros for now. They are just the latest fad. Not saying bad though.

Anyone who is not cautious in choosing a partner for the next 60 or 70 years is nuts. This is probably the most important decision you will ever make. We are almost 30 years in and it is great but it was not easy to find someone. Not sure it is comittment exactly. More finding someone that wants a long term partner and that you both like each other and can stand each other over the long run and are heading in a similar direction in this complex world. Lot of people do not seem to know the difference between lust and love too.

By the way, the president does not decide policy. That is congress in the US. The president administers policy. So the number one thing is follow rhe constitution and the law and the spirit of the law. Sadly thw current administration cannot even meet this low bar.

Fix the deficit. Pay down the debt. Stabalize and reverse the erosion of the middle class.

I prefer following science rather then quackery. People forget what the world was like before vaccinations, floride, and public health. Sadly in the US the quacks are in charge now.

So yes vax for me,

There are a lot of things going on. Internationally, China and Russia and others at war or preparing for war with the west. So big geopolitical stuff. At home an aligment of those forces to create political instbility with existing forces internal to the US. A media and social media enviornment that thrives on outrage not truth. Disastisfaction that has resulted in a major political party being taken over by fascist, authoritarian. and corrupt influences. A populus that thinks this is just fine for one reason or another. A wealthy corporate power elite behind the scenes that likes this.

I used to think that until this https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2025/01/03/apple-siri-class-action-lawsuit/77426858007/ . Claims are one thing. Actions are another. The sad fact is Apple is so locked so there is very little way to verify anything. There is also very little choice to opt out. At least Android is FOSS and you do not have to use Google apps or services.
